I agree wit you Bob seafoam worth a dime had jiffylube do this to my old 91 dakota with the injector cleaning little while after started smoking ending up losing compression and got blowby now i have my 02 just dealing with crappy mileage. I see JJ out performs everyone but what i see in some posts hes driving truck up to temperature and of course mileage will be better and sludge issue?.Alot of short trip driving not bringing truck up to temp and thats where alot of gas mileage is? thats what iam thinking why my mileage is down i do alot short trips around town,work store etc. and MI winters dont help and truck not coming up to temp.

well i got my truck in 2004 with 140,000 on it so thats a ton of miles that i do not know how well its been maintained during that time tho it runs fairly well right now and its all stock. i do a lot of around town driving too, i prolly hit the highway once a month. i had an epifany last night. arent there things you pour in your gas tank that will clean your engine as it goes through?

ben, those will just clean the fuel system not inside the crankcase where the sludge builds up.
